The ability to work is a privilege. It’s also a right. One that can be taken away whenever it is deemed necessary. But what happens if you can’t work? This doesn’t just mean you’re unemployed, but that you can’t work because of a medical condition. There are many different types of disabilities, but one of the most common is the inability to work because of a mental condition. This includes things like anxiety and depression. These conditions affect the person’s ability to work.
